Rialto Cinemas Cerrito is pleased to announce our participation in the world-wide presentation of London Assurance as the 5th bonus event to the current NT Live season. Starring Fiona Shaw and Simon Russell Beale, directed by NT Artistic Director Nicholas Hytner.

NT Live is a new initiative by the UK's National Theatre to broadcast live performances of plays onto cinema screens around the world. All performances begin as advertised, additionally there is "walk in" content shown for one half hour before the presentation featuring interviews with cast and crew.

Sir Harcourt Courtly is lured away from the epicentre of fashionable London by the promise of a rich and beautiful bride, Grace, several decades his junior . Arriving at Oak Hall, Gloucestershire, he marvels at this rural Venus until her charms are eclipsed by her hearty cousin, the foxhunting Lady Gay Spanker. Meanwhile his disguised son turns up in flight from his creditors and falls head over heels for Grace. When Lady Spanker discovers the young couple, she needs little prompting from the visiting chancer Dazzle to lead Sir Harcourt astray.

Dion Boucicault, the Irish genius of London theatre in the age of Dickens, wrote the brilliantly funny London Assurance in 1841 and thereby created - in Sir Harcourt and Lady Spanker - two of the great comic roles of the English stage, played at the NT by Simon Russell Beale and Fiona Shaw.

London's Daily Telegraph raves "Simon Russell Beale appears to be having the time of his life as Sir Harcourt Courtly. Fiona Shaw is in blissful form...her [Lady Gay] Spanker is a sublime comic creation. Mark Thompson's designs stylishly capture both metropolitan sophistication and the bucolic pleasures of an idyllic Elizabethan manor house, while Nicholas Hytner's glowingly affectionate production offers a feast of irresistible comic acting. The whole show is a joy from start to finish!"

And The Sunday Times says "This is a treat - stylish, hilarious and unmissable. Sparking, uproarious comedy, bursting with elegant, biting but warm-hearted wit and revelling in its own mastery of theatrical skill."
